PSP Headquarters Food Service Provider

The Pennsylvania State Police is soliciting a food service provider for its headquarters building cafeteria at 1800 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, with proposals due September 4, 2026. This is a no-cost contract to the Commonwealth; the vendor retains total sales minus a 3% gross sales monthly remittance to the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation.

The scope requires the vendor to operate the cafeteria and provide breakfast and lunch service Monday through Friday from 0700 to 1500 hours. The Cost Matrix spreadsheet (SFP-2026-2) defines a comprehensive menu across beverages (coffee, tea, juices, milk, soda), breakfast items (made-to-order eggs, sandwiches, croissants, bagels, English muffins, pancakes, baked products), lunch offerings (salad bar, soups, sandwiches, subs, wraps, hot foods including hamburgers and hot dogs, daily specials), and snacks and desserts (cookies, cakes, pies, ice cream, chips, candy). The vendor must submit pricing per item in the Cost Matrix; weekly quantity estimates are provided for scoring purposes only and do not guarantee actual volumes. Vendors may propose supplementary menu items beyond the required offerings.

The vendor is responsible for maintaining the cafeteria space, managing food inventory and quality standards, ensuring health and safety compliance, and providing staffing to deliver consistent service. Bidders must demonstrate financial capability, food service experience, and operational capacity to meet the specified service hours and meal requirements. Vendors must provide their SAP number, contract number, and contact information with their submission. The contract award is contingent on vendor performance throughout the contract term.
